A US man has sold the domain name pizza.com for $2.6m (£1.3m) - after maintaining the site for just $20 a year since 1994.
Chris Clark, 43, accepted the offer from an anonymous bidder after a week-long online auction.
"It's crazy, it's just crazy," Mr Clark, who lives in North Potomac, Maryland, was quoted as saying by the Baltimore Sun newspaper.
"It will make a significant difference in my life, for sure," he added.

this is the most expensive pizza ever

The Whois record for Pizza.com hasn't been updated yet so the buyer remains anonymous for now!
What d'ya reckon though? Dominoes or Pizza Hut?

Not quite in the same league, but here's a list of some recent .co.uk domain name auctions and the prices that were fetched:

So if you own something similar, you could be sat on a considerable amount of money!

Hmmm, fatreg is quite a good domain name. Short, easy to remember, would be good for a site about beer and pies...
